Thanks!
When I did them, several sets I, I used a sander I know others use different methods. I used sanding discs on a drill and started with 36 and went to 1200/1500 then paste and polish. 36,80,120,180,300 etc

Opening the light allows you to re-paint the reflector under the indicator as it is a gold colour painting a darker colour gives a more factory look
